By “building a Fediverse server” I meant exactly that, not software developers. (Thanks for pointing it out though - it means that my explanation was ambiguous. I’ll edit the above accordingly.)
Right, as a software developer myself, I equated “build” as “building” the software, not “building” the community or administration around an instance 😅
It’s kind of funny because when I used the word “building” the first thing that came to my mind was the server as a house - like, you’re building a digital home for a bunch of people. So the idea was in the opposite direction as yours. Just language things.
It’s more like for instance admins rather than the developers of the server software itself. At least that’s how I understand it.

Ah, that explains it.

I think also the use of the word “server” instead of “instance”, but it’s quite a small semantic nitpick.
